Greg i haven't posted much since this popped up around a year and a bit ago.
There is a new 757F airline being set up in Brissy.Management and engineering jobs were advertised on Jora and Seek several months ago.
Airwork NZ are behind this carrier and it has a name of Air Freighter Solutions.

Watch this space.:)
